Brown pool water from fillingw ith well water
We have a well and as our pool filled it was yellow I shocked it and now it is a iced tea brown. It is almost ot the level that we can start running the filter but is there something i need to get to get the water clear. We don't have a water softner so I imagine it is my well water. I know this cause I have to use heavy chemicals to clean my toilets and showers. We have a 4ft deep 15ft round Intex metal walled above ground.
Not really brown...
I looked at the pool again and it is looking like it is green not brown. Clorine tested high Ph is ideal, HELP!
Sounds like you have iron and maybe copper in your well water. Well water in may parts of the country are high in iron. I suggest getting a pool store to do a test for iron and copper. If the levels are high, you will need to use a sequestrant to bind the metals and keep them from causing problems.
